Abstract
Corona discharge under airflow is extensively researched due to its wide applications in the fields of electrostatic precipitator, flow control, thermal management, and so on. The adjustment of discharge characteristics has been an important research topic in recent years. In this article, a magnetic field is applied as a method to adjust the characteristics of corona discharge under airflow. The experimental result illustrates that the intensity and direction of the magnetic field would influence the turning point of the discharge state under airflow, and the corresponding discharge image and Trichel pulse characteristics, such as amplitude and frequency, would also be changed. The physical mechanism for this phenomenon is analyzed by considering the magnetic force of the corona discharge. With increasing magnetic field intensity, the pressure in the discharge space would change and the airflow state and the discharge process, as the ionization process and the attachment process, would be influenced. The overall characteristics of discharge under airflow would be adjusted by the magnetic field. The results illustrated that the magnetic field is possibly utilized to improve the application of corona discharge under airflow.
